14 Reasons We're Obsessed With John Legend And Chrissy Teigen
Who's the most glamorous celebrity couple out there? Most people would definitely agree that it's John Legend and Chrissy Teigen. The singer and model are quite the dynamic duo. Chrissy is the host of Lip Sync Battle, has an awesome food blog, is the author of her first cookbook Cravings which hit stores this past February, and oh yeah, recently gave birth to a beautiful baby. She's pretty busy and that's exactly why we adore her so much. Oh yeah, and her husband, John Legend, is pretty great, too. He's a super accomplished musician and he's won a ton of awards -- we're talking ten Grammys. It's hard not to be totally in love with this power couple. They put the beauty in beautiful and seem like super sweet people, too. Here are 14 reasons we're obsessed with John Legend and Chrissy Teigen.
14 Chrissy Can Cook
Some stars put out cookbooks as a money grab and a way to stay in the public eye and get even more fame and fortune. These are usually super obvious because once you turn the pages, you realize that the intros to each recipe were clearly written by a ghostwriter, and that the celeb probably hired an accomplished, professional chef to write the recipes themselves, too. But not Chrissy Teigen. One look at her blog Sodelushious.com or her Instagram proves that the girl can cook. The recipes in her cookbook are super unique, plus she's made no secret of the fact that she adores food, so you just know that it's all her.
13 Her Instagram Is Amazing
Just one look at Chrissy's Instagram account is all that you need to become completely and utterly addicted. She posts tons of food photos (of course) and they're not kale salads or smoothies. She's eating and cooking amazing dishes like pizza, fried chicken and, naturally, cake. Her account is basically John, food, and the baby. Sounds pretty great to us.
12 They Have The Best Baby
Of course their baby is absolutely gorgeous and the cutest baby ever to have graced this planet with its presence. Would you have expected anything less? Chrissy gave birth to a daughter and they named her Luna, which is quite possibly the sweetest, prettiest girl name out there. Just look at that face and look at those eyes.
11 They're Super Romantic
The couple got married in Italy. For real. Is there a more romantic place on the planet to get hitched? Probably not. Chrissy and John first laid eyes on each other when he was shooting his music video for his song "Stereo." They have both told the media that it wasn't like they fell head over heels ASAP and they both chilled out a bit before deciding to get serious. But we're pretty sure they must have known it was for real because they're such an adorable couple and they seem so mushy.
10 He's Got The Voice Of An Angel
No matter what kind of music you listen to or what genre you call your absolute favorite, you have to admit that John Legend can sing. He's totally got the voice of an angel and you can't help but be moved every time you hear him sing. The world totally agrees because he's got the many, many awards to prove it.
9 She's Hilarious
All you have to do is read Chrissy's one-sentence Instagram bio ("Making American great again") and you're pretty much on the floor laughing, right? Chrissy is absolutely, without a doubt, hilarious. She doesn't take anything too seriously, whether it's herself or her crazy rich and famous life. That's the reason her cookbook is so great -- she infuses her wit, cleverness and sense of humor into each and every page and every single recipe. It's not your typical cookbook and that's what makes her so unique.
8 He Wrote A Song For Her
Okay, he's probably written about a billion songs for her at this point. But the one that we know of: his hit "All Of Me." Just try to listen to this song and not cry. Just try. You will 100 percent fail because it's super beautiful and emotional. You just have to love a guy that writes such touching, sensitive lyrics like "You're my end and my beginning, even when I lose I'm winning."
7 They're Cheeky
You might have heard that the famous couple actually tried to trick the media by bringing a baby that wasn't real to a basketball game. They really, really did that. Well, they attempted it -- they were discovered and it didn't end up happening. But it's the thought that counts, and they totally would have gone through with it. It's not a joke even though it sounds like one. That's what makes this couple so amazing: they have a sense of humor and are pretty cheeky and clever.
6 She's Quirky
Did you know Chrissy is in love with Doritos? You probably are too but maybe you don't do what she does: she literally licks them but doesn't eat them. She told Delish.com that "You still get all the flavor, but not all the carbs!" That's pretty intense. But that's just part of her quirk and charm.
5 They're Honest
Just read any interview with either one of them and you'll see how totally honest they are. They're honest about how they met -- Chrissy has made it clear that yeah, they slept together the first night they met, no big deal -- and about other aspects of their relationship. That's really great to see because we do know that celebrities are just like us (well, in some ways) but a lot of celebrity couples don't share much about their love stories.
4 They Seem Fun
Don't you sometimes look at celebrities and think, they'd make an awesome BFF (like Mindy Kaling) or, in the case of a couple, you would totally love to double date with them and your boyfriend? Chrissy and John seem like the absolute best couple friends you could possibly have. They just seem like tons of fun, don't they? You could just see yourself being invited over to their house for a fancy dinner party or a casual Sunday barbecue and the food would always be on point and amazing. Of course, you would return the favor. But you get the sense that Chrissy doesn't mind doing all the cooking.
3 They're Actually In Love
There are a lot of celeb couples that kind of seem like they're just dating for show. You only see them in fancy outfits at fancy parties or events, and the red carpet loves them (and they love it right back). But you really believe that Chrissy and John are really in love, and that's pretty priceless anytime, whether you live in the real world or in Hollywood.
2 He Supports Her
John recently protected Chrissy when the media started acting like she shouldn't be doing certain things now that she has a baby. She tweeted, "I went to dinner. People are pissed. Good morning!" John said that they should tell him what they think instead and leave her out of it. Aw, that's true love in the public eye.
1 They're As Normal As They Can Be
Look, of course Chrissy and John have more money and resources and opportunities than the average Joe couple. But they seem as normal as they possibly could be, and we love that. They eat junk food, they eat real meals, they love to hang out at home and Chrissy has even made her Real Housewives addiction clear in interviews. Did we mention how much we like this couple?
